Welcome to the tenth edition of the Bowmer and Kirkland
community newsletter.
Project Programme - The Word Building
Works are still progressing well and we are still on programme to complete the construction works in Autumn 2016.
The external envelope is now fully weather tight following the completion of the glazed façade that faces out towards the river Tyne. The internal fit out is also progressing well on each of the floors with joinery, ceilings and wall finishes. External concrete retaining walls are progressing around the perimeter of the building and the hard landscaping works are progressing to all areas around the building including the new footpath works which have now started on Dean Street. Ferry Street
We will be starting the installation of the new Puffin crossing on Ferry Street from Monday 23rd May 2016. When complete this will provide the link from Dean Street across Ferry Street heading to the Ferry terminal. The civil and paving works will be carried out over a three week period from Monday 23rd May 2016 and will be constructed in two halves in order to maintain a single lane live under temporary traffic lights as noted on the plan above. Traffic light installations will follow and will be operational once all of the external areas are complete in Autumn 2016.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause during this period.
